Wisconsin or WashU?

The U.W. is a HUGE place (40,000+ undergrads) and it is easy to get lost. Then again, go there if you like to sail or bike or roller blade or wind surf in your free time. Drinking is very heavy at both places, but a veritable legacy (that is stupidly upheld) at the UW. St. Louis is a helluva lot bigger than Madison. The UW makes its own ice cream. Wash. U. is a more intellectual environment.

Honestly, the campuses and their cultures are very different from one another.
